<h4>Description</h4>
<p>The file read/write pointer of the file object advances number of bytes read. After the function succeeded, <tt class="arg">*br</tt> should be checked to detect the end of file. In case of <tt class="arg">*br</tt> is less than <tt class="arg">btr</tt>, it means the read/write pointer reached end of the file during read operation.</p>
